competence type IV pilus minor pilin ComGF
ComGF is a family of putative bacterial competence proteins. [1]. 9723928. Cell surface localization and processing of the ComG proteins, required for DNA binding during transformation of Bacillus subtilis. Chung YS, Breidt F, Dubnau D;. Mol Microbiol. 1998;29:905-913. (from Pfam)
ComGF is one of several minor pilins in the type IV pilus involved in the competence system of natural transformation by various Gram-positive bacteria. Oddly, while nearly all members have an N-terminal region with a consensus site for cleavage and methylation, ComGF from Bacillus subtilis appears N-terminally truncated, and may be functional despite the truncation.
